Routledge Indigeneity: Before and Beyond the Law Book

Explore the complex relationship between Indigenous peoples and legal systems in Indigeneity: Before and Beyond the Law. Published by Routledge, this scholarly work examines how the Indigenous subject exists within and outside of legal frameworks. By looking at both literary and juridical texts, the book investigates how indigeneity is represented and understood in different contexts. This text uses the philosophy of Jacques Derrida and Walter Benjamin to analyze the tension between law and justice. It provides a deep look into Indigenous legal claims, discourses of rights, and the processes of recognition. Readers will gain a better understanding of postcolonialism and resistance within settler contexts through a lens of critical legal theory and continental philosophy. This book is an essential resource for those studying anthropology, sociology, and the intersection of law and literature.
